Roman's Roost

On our way home from San Antonio we stopped off at Natural Bridge Caverns were they also have a African safari drive thru.  It was so much fun!  The kids loved it because they got out of their car seats!  (Since then Brycen fights me to get in his car seat every time we go anywhere.)  The animals really did come right up to the car and we got to feed the animals right out of our hands.  The longhorn actually stuck out it's long tongue and licked my hand.  I touched pretty much every kind of animal.  (which I thought was pretty cool)  At times the kids were a little scared but still talk about all the animals everyday.  The emu was the funniest of all,  it came up to our car and actually bit Paul's hand then he started throwing the food at the emu and it started coming inside the car.  Paul rolled up the window and the bird (very big at most)  was pecking at the window Paul thought it might break the window but if we would of moved we would of ran over it's foot.  I was laughing so hard I couldn't breathe and was crying from laughing so hard. We went through the trail again because for some reason we missed the zebras and at that time there was a guy in a golf cart who was guarding that emu.  When we passed him it was like he recognized us and he started going crazy yelling and stomping his feet and the guy had to block him.  It was hilarious! There was a petting zoo as well.  We bought Brycen a Ostrich (looked like the Emu) and he runs around pecking everything all over the house.  It was alot of fun.  Can't wait to go back...
